Oh Brother....so many more brothers.

I  have 10 new brothers (or more or less but I  lose count all the time).  You read that right. My brothers are not all related- we have some cousins, uncles and absolutely no relation in that mix. However, they all treat me like their sister. They are not the only people treating me like family, I  also have three sisters and a mom. Again the three sisters aren't biological sisters to each other. It's very confusing, but we all live in the same house and love each other. That's what matters right? I'll draw you a family tree sometime, it's incredibly helpful.

We live twenty minutes from school, which means I'm 20 minutes shy of the recommended daily exercise (I walk there and back). We live on a rabbit farm, which is really cute until you see them without their skins on...meat is very fresh here. I  think this is the first time I've seen the animal I've eaten (not the rabbit yet, just chicken so far). My brother says he'll teach me to butcher a chicken sometime. They teach me all sorts of great life skills like how to say hello, do my laundry and the meaning of money.

That's about all the update I have time for (got to start walking home before it gets dark- a strict seven pm curfew). Pray for the family who takes American students in every semester and loves each and everyone of them as their own- they have been the biggest Ugandan blessing.
